Hello,
I'm planning my upcoming contesting column in CQ Amateur Radio Magazine on
station accessories, filtering, switching and computers. If you are a
contester and are interested in providing your opinion for an upcoming column,
I would appreciate it if you could answer the questions below and send your
answers DIRECTLY to me at _n2ga@cq-amateur-radio.com_
(mailto:n2ga@cq-amateur-radio.com) and NOT through the reflector! Please take
a look at the
questions below and provide answers, elaborating anywhere you feel it is
appropriate.
Thank you in advance!
73, George
